3–0 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
San Francisco 49ers
The standard through three weeks. Brock Purdy is playing at an MVP level, and San Francisco keeps finding answers even while managing the health questions that have followed this roster.
4DK NFL • WEEK 3 FINAL • SEPTEMBER 29, 2026
4DK POWER
RANKINGS.
Week 3 is complete. Chicago's 27–7 win over Philadelphia is in the books, every team has played three games, and this is our final 4DK board entering Week 4.
3–0 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Buffalo Bills
Five turnovers against the Chargers made it ugly, but Buffalo still found a way to win. We respect a contender surviving a game when almost everything went wrong.
3–0 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Kansas City Chiefs
Kansas City hasn't needed fireworks every week. The Chiefs are unbeaten, more balanced, and still have Patrick Mahomes controlling the biggest moments.
3–0 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Minnesota Vikings
Three weeks is enough to take Minnesota seriously. The defense has set the tone, and winning in Tampa kept the Vikings in the unbeaten group.
3–0 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Las Vegas Raiders
The biggest early surprise in football. Vegas keeps producing points and winning. Now comes the measuring stick: unbeaten Kansas City.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Denver Broncos
Denver gets our bump after erasing a 16–0 halftime deficit against the Rams. The offense has room to grow, but the Broncos showed the toughness and late-game execution we want from a contender.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Jacksonville Jaguars
A 35–6 demolition of New England gets our attention. Jacksonville is starting to turn its talent into complete performances.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore survived Dallas 34–31 in Rio. Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry still give this offense a championship ceiling, but the defense has enough leaks to keep the Ravens behind Denver on our board.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Detroit Lions
Jahmyr Gibbs remains one of the league's most dangerous weapons, and Detroit can score with anybody. The defense keeps the Lions from climbing higher right now.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Seattle Seahawks
The Washington loss was messy, especially the turnovers, but we're not throwing away what Seattle showed in the first two weeks.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Los Angeles Rams
The record matters, even when the roster looks better than it. Los Angeles can beat anybody, but two losses in three weeks and late mistakes in Denver keep the Rams outside our top 10.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh keeps living in close games and finding ways to finish them. The 30–27 win over Cincinnati was another example.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Chicago Bears
Chicago moves ahead of Philadelphia after the most impressive result of Week 3. Winning 27–7 without Caleb Williams — with Case Keenum delivering three touchdowns — showed real depth.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Philadelphia Eagles
The talent is better than what the offense has looked like. Seven points in Chicago and three straight three-and-outs to open the second half force Philly down our board.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Cincinnati Bengals
Cincinnati is still dangerous, but the loss in Pittsburgh exposed enough inconsistency to keep the Bengals behind the stronger 2–1 teams this week.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Dallas Cowboys
Dallas is better than a typical 1–2 team, but results have to matter. The Cowboys pushed Baltimore to the final seconds and still left with another loss.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
New York Giants
The defense has given New York a foundation. With Jaxson Dart injured, the quarterback situation becomes the story and the offense has to stay functional through the transition.
2–1 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Cleveland Browns
Two wins deserve respect. Cleveland still has more to prove before we put it with the upper-half contenders, but the Browns have earned this spot.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta finally looked like the offense we expected. Michael Penix Jr.'s return, Bijan Robinson's huge night and Drake London's explosion turned Lambeau into a 35–14 statement.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Washington Commanders
The record doesn't tell the whole story after Washington went into Seattle and won 33–31. That was the type of result that can change a season.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
New Orleans Saints
New Orleans has been competitive, but allowing 35 to Las Vegas keeps the Saints in the lower half of our board.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Carolina Panthers
There are stretches where Carolina looks ready to turn the corner. The next step is finishing those games.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Green Bay Packers
One of our biggest drops. Giving up 35 at Lambeau while producing only 17 rushing yards exposed problems on both sides.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Indianapolis Colts
The 19–17 win over Houston was badly needed. We need to see Indianapolis stack good performances before moving higher.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
New York Jets
The Jets competed with Detroit, but we're still waiting for a complete four-quarter performance that turns competitiveness into wins.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Arizona Cardinals
Putting 30 on San Francisco showed Arizona has fight and offensive juice. Closing games against quality opponents remains the hurdle.
1–2 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
New England Patriots
A 35–6 loss forces a major drop. New England has to show Week 3 was an outlier before we move the Patriots back up.
0–3 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Houston Texans
The talent suggests Houston should be higher. Three straight losses say we can't rank the Texans on talent and expectations anymore.
0–3 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Los Angeles Chargers
Another roster that looks better on paper than its record. At 0–3, potential stops carrying weight until the Chargers turn it into a win.
0–3 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Winless through three and in a real early-season hole. Tampa needs a response quickly.
0–3 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Tennessee Titans
The defense gave Tennessee a chance against the Giants, but seven offensive points won't win many NFL games.
0–3 • 4DK WEEK 4 BOARD
Miami Dolphins
Miami stays at the bottom. The Dolphins haven't shown enough consistency on either side to justify moving up.
